Yesterday's meet was better in terms of numbers, but still lacking Contours. In fact, every car attending looked different, with one pre-98 'tour, one 98+ 'tour, one Cougar, one FSVT, and that Mystique that we parked next to  For December's meeting, I'd like to propose a topic: winter prep and care. For those of us who can't currently afford a winter beater, what's the best way to care for your car during the winter? My concern is not being able to wash the car in my driveway, so I think we should meet at a local do-it-yourself car wash, wash off the salt and crap, and swap tips on how to best protect your finish.

I don't know exactly where yet. I've been trying to coordinate meets on the west side of town, since most of us live on the south side or in Waukesha. If you or anyone else can recommend a good DIY (machines BAD) car wash we can meet at, please do. I'll bring my microfiber towel so I can amaze you as I dry two, maybe three soaking wet cars with one towel! Wow! This time I'll also remember to bring my laptop and OBD-II scanner tool in case anyone would like to use it. Does Dec. 8 sound good to everyone?

Thanks for the kind words about my car. I should be able to make it down, all I need is a time and place. I'll probably freeze my fingers off when I wash it up before I drive down though.

You don't want to wash it when you get here? I'm hoping to hold the meet at a self-serv car wash, but I understand if its cheaper/more convenient to do it up there Then again if its too cold we might have to skip the wash. The weather report is a high of 32, so its probably best if we meet during the mid-afternoon of the day.

Your right,I can wait till I get there to wash it. Mid afternoon sounds like a good time, Packers don't play till 7:30 pm.
